Hopefully, we'll get more open standards with the FLASH stuff and the like, now, much as with Adobe's PDF, which has open specifications so open source has far fewer issues with it. OTOH, Adobe was also the company that nailed Skylarev (sp?) with the DMCA, so they're not /all/ "good guys", by /any/ stretch! Hopefully now we get more good and less bad, not the other way around. -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
